Death. Thanatos. O death where is your sting? Death has been swallowed up in victory. Jesus did not just survive death. He destroyed its power for everyone who believes.

Victory. Nikos. Thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. The victory is given not earned. Receive it in faith. Live from it not toward it.

To swallow up, to devour. Katapino. Your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. He is looking for the isolated and the unguarded. Stay close.

Perishable, subject to decay. Phthartós. Corruptible things, silver and gold, cannot redeem a soul. What fades was never meant to be your foundation. Build on what remains.

To put on, to clothe oneself. Put on the Lord Jesus Christ. Wear Him like a garment. Let His character cover every part of your life.

Mortal, subject to death. Thnētos. What is mortal must put on immortality. Our dying bodies are the very vessels through which resurrection power is made visible. Do not despise the flesh; trust the promise.

Then, at that time. Tote. Scripture marks moments when everything shifts: then the disciples understood, then the end will come. God works in ordered time. Pay attention to what follows "then."

To become, to come into being, to happen. Ginomai. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. What is true in heaven is meant to become true on earth through prayer.

In Greek thought, the logos was the rational principle holding the universe together. John opens his Gospel with this word — not as a concept, but as a person. In the beginning was the Word. Before anything existed, the Word already was.

To write, to record. These things are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ and have life in His name.
